I really like the horns, too. Yes, I got them at a great price. Right
now I am playing the Goodson models tenor, alto, and bari. They are a
little easier to play (specifically the left hand stack, palm keys
and altissimmo are fuller sounding and in tune with no air or
emboucher adjustment needed) for a once or twice a weeker like me and
the sound is incredible. I prefer the sound of the Saxgourmet tenor
and alto slighty better, but the ease of play wins out on the Goodson
models. If I played everyday I would definitely play the Saxgourmet
tenor and alto.

I think Steve's newest models will combine the best of both worlds,
but I am happy with what I have.

John, don't you sell Cannonballs over the net at bottom feeder prices
with no warranty or factory support at all on ebay under the name
"saxnut"? Where do you find horns in brand new condition to sell at
such cheap prices and why do you keep details of your sale private on
ebay?

don't worry, Johnny boy.....nobody thinks you're the least bit crazy or
obsessive.....everybody loves and respects you....I know the staff at
Orpheus (which doesn't exist anymore, but then, you knew that..) laughs
about you still...you're doing a great job.....I know the great light of
rightousness shines in your eyes.....you and you alone will save the world
from the evil one.....it's your sacred mission, Johnny boy.....you must stop
him!

now, go take your meds and crawl back under your rock

Actually Steve what I have written is the truth and you know it. It
may be that you have lied so many times that you are incapable of
knowing what is true and what is not. I happen to know someone in San
Antonio who has a personal and professional connection with both a
current and former employee of Orpheus Musical Instruments. That is
the source of my information. If you have a different version of your
leaving the company than the one I have given, you are certainly
welcome to present it here for all to see. By the way, how else would
I know the "nickname" of the company's owner, if I haven't
communicated with someone inside the company?

I know all this has a direct and personal impact on your life, Johnny
baby.....that's why you're SO obsessed! Now be a good little troll and go
take your meds and everything will be all better......

How about your version or how you left Orpheus if as you claim, what I
wrote isn't the truth? Put up Steve or shut up.

By the way a grown man who poses as 42 different people on his own
forum has little room to question someone else's sanity. Say hi to
Thomas Bowles next time you see him. Ask him how he likes his new
Vespro for me.

The fact that you have failed to respond to the topic and instead
continue with your juvenile ad hominem attacks against me should prove
to anyone reading this thread that the claims I have made are true.
The point is that one more time you have been caught in a lie. This
raises the important question that if you are so adept and prolific at
telling lies, then how can anyone believe anything you say about your
services and products?

Johnny:
did "the voices" keep you up last night?....it seems like you are the only
one who wants to discuss this.....you really don't have to do EVERYTHING the
voices in your head tell you to do, Johnny....remember, the meds will make
the voices stop.....that's why you are supposed to take them, and take them
every day.....you really don't have to fight the evil one every
day.....remember, if what the voices told you was true, others would help
you, and they're not....go take your meds, Johnny, and take a nice nap under
your rock

This is great Steve. Keep it going. I'm not the one whose living
depends on his reputation in the music industry. The search engines
are going to find this thread for sure when someone types in your
name. If the discussion goes stale maybe we can discuss certain
racist, homophobic, and sexist comments and behaviors of yours that
are well documented to spice things up a bit.

Folks who are not megalomaniacs and pathological liars do have a voice
in their head. It is called a CONSCIENCE----something you would know
nothing about.
